The main advantage to wiring a circuit with multiple accessories and access points into a series is that one main switch can control them all. This can allow a single circuit breaker, fuse, or the operator to disable them all in one step.

series circuit have a single path that connect to the electric source. series circuit have limited uses because any change in one circuit part affects all the circuit parts. while the parallel circuit provide more than one path for current and even there is change in one circuit part it will not get affects to the remaining circuit parts. by: Policios, J.

Two types of circuit are serial and parallel. Putting the batteries in series will add their voltages, while putting them up in parallel will increase their power (amp/hours available)

If lights are in series, and one burns out, then they all go out. If they are put up in parallel when one burns out the rest will stay on; like Christmas lights.
